This 24" walk-behind rough-cut mower is perfect for cutting trails through the woods and clearing fields and ditches year-round. It will clear the densest undergrowth and saplings up to 1.5" in diameter. This self-propelled walk-behind features an 11.5 HP Briggs & Stratton engine and a heavy-duty fabricated cutting deck with a 4" fixed cutting height. The single, fixed hardened-steel blade zips through brush and saplings with ease, and the blade is enclosed for maximum safety. Handlebar mounted controls are easily accessible for PTO, self-propelled and safety. The adjustable height handlebar eases operator control. Two heavy duty front casters remove the unit weight off the operator and improve stability and ease of use. Large pneumatic chevron tires roll easily over the roughest terrain for excellent traction in all conditions. The four-speed transmission is great for setting a comfortable pace, and a reverse mode is handy for backing out of rough spots. Front and side safety deflectors protect against flying debris while the wire shield protects electrical components.

This Is An Awesome Tool

I purchased land in the spring and by the time we got on the land it was already overgrown. It was thick brush that a bulldozer had made a few paths across. I purchased the swisher to reopen the paths that had small1" trees laying down or standing in spots. This mower blew right through. The only complaint I have is my own fault. I hit some thick grass and it bogged the mower down. I kept the mower blades running and the belt burned up. It is a 50" belt and I was shocked it took longer to walk to get the 1/2" wrenches and 9/16" wrench then to replace the belt.

James,

Sorry to hear about the issues, this will be covered under warranty by a local service center please let me know if you will like me to send you a list of service centers in your area to get this resolved.

Had problems with lawn mowers high wheel riding mowers (residential) weed eaters and lost a machete faster than I could buy them......This machine works very good, cuts well, use it like a lawnmower with the front wheel attachment and can remove with four bolts. I feel that this mower will do my job w/o the guys (saying it will not work ) bought the 3 year contract will let you know at the end of 3 years if its still performing the only thing I feel the reverse shift handle will break.

James,

Thank you for the great review. We are happy that you are pleased with your purchase. We are confident you will be just as pleased in 3 years. Thank you for choosing Swisher!

If my grandsons made the honor roll, I promised them bicycle trails through about 4 acres of wooded property.
Obviously, it was a good incentive as they will now get their trails.

I haven't tried it out yet, as I live in NC but we are moving to OK near my son. I had it delivered to his house, and my son gets very excited about ANYTHING that has a motor...

He of course has tried it out, says it's great, and says that I (his mother) will be able to handle it. Best thing though, it will get my grandsons outdoors and do some physical work, then they have their trails (I have to buy a bike), and they will enjoy riding, building a tree house, making signs, etc.

Christine,

Thank you for sharing this. That's great that they both made the honor roll! And getting them outside building a tree house and riding on bike trails is definitely a plus. Thank you for writing a review, and we wish you a wonderful rest of your summer.

Thank you for the inspiring review. We focus on the machine's performance, but rarely do we think about what can be done afterwards! Congratulations to your grandson's and thank you for choosing Swisher!

"The website was very informative. It was also well explained about the delivery that if I didn't have a loading dock or 5 people to unload, I should get delivery on a lift truck.
The lift truck was $50.00, which I thought was extremely reasonable. I will certainly order from them again, as I probably should get an extra set of blades for this."
